paramount, there is a scene in a movie that I want you to check out. In “shawshank redemption” there is a guard who just inherits a large sum of money from his brother and complains that his brother screwed him because now he has to pay the taxes on the inheritance.

When you watch it, say to yourself “what person do I know that reminds me of that character,” and if you don’t answer “yourself,” watch it again.

Seriously, I don’t even know you and you are the most negative person in my world. For your sake, find something that makes you happy and do that, then do it again and again. This anger and envy is going to wreak havoc on your health, well being and those around you.

I don’t say this to engage you in an argument, I say this coming from experience, at a point in time, many years ago, I think I was you. The world was rigged against me, everyone was more fortunate, luckier or just had it easier than me. I was miserable and I made others miserable around me, I had to kill their joy or it would expose my lack of it. At a regular check up my physician tried to put me on anti-depressants just from what he heard in a five minute conversation.

I’m not even sure how I changed or why, but it was probably a combination of fifty things, yet it happened so I know you can do it. I do know that it took a close friend to tell me that I was the problem before I took a look in the mirror. I know I’m not your good friend or even a friend, in fact I’m your nemesis, but someone has to start you on your journey.

Here is a starter kit for changing your perspective, it’s gonna sound douchy, but just pick a few.

1. Make it your mission to give one person a compliment each day. Pick someone with the least things that should be complimented and find one good thing about them and compliment then on it. If it’s a woman, compliment her shoes, it’s non sexual, men really don’t care but women spend a great deal of time on shoe selection.

2. Go buy four books, get the Tao Te Chi and put it in the bathroom, read a passage a day. Then read The five people you meet in heaven, Frankl’s man’s search for meaning and shackletons endurance. Frankl and shackleton’s experiences will allow you to see that nothing can break you and nothing that you have to deal with even gives you the right to complain, that your worst day would be their best and that obstacles are a gift, a gift that allows you to learn and grow.

3. Buy a convertable, even if it’s cheap and old and maybe a little too feminine, they are just fun.

4. Drink wine, smoke cigars, watch porn, all three have more positive effects than negative ones.

5. Pick a sports team, identify with it, learn everything about it and be a fan, it’s fun, plus even if you stay a total grump, it gives other guys some reason to talk to you at parties.

6. go to parties, bbq’s, events and festivals. Always chip in and bring more than they ask you to. If they ask you to bring a bottle of wine, bring five and bring good stuff. If they ask you to bring an appetizer, bring something that will blow their minds. Let them know that they are important and you are grateful, don’t do the minumum.

7. Splurge on yourself a little. Buy a Nat nast shirt or a Robert Grahm, it’s not the money, but wearing a $100 shirt makes you feel like a million. Buy a used one on e-bay.

8. Remember that each time you speak, your words can do two things, they can hurt and supress or they can encourage and support, think twice before speaking and choose the latter.

9. Buy a stranger a drink or a meal, random soldiers are perfect for this, tell them you appreciate them, thank them, the look in their eyes will stay with you for years. Or just hold a door for elderly women and engage them in conversation, it’s actually fun, old ladies will crack you up if you talk to them or help them.

There, a starter kit for the mind, body and soul.

Charter schools usually specialize in something or have an emphasis (music, art, high tech) if you have a kid that’s got a particular talent or preference, they might really do well in that environment. It’s not a sign of a lack of confidence in the schools, it’s more of an experiment that sometimes works for some kids. I never said the schools were the absolute best, but for those of us who are not trading time and money to drive, it’s a good value. 800+ API’s from elem through high school for $100 a square foot. maybe that’s a new metric, temec has an 8 to 1 API to sq footage cost. You could pay 200 a square for 850, but it’s a 4.5 to 1, so there is less value, that’s all.

sdr, she didn’t break out the red pen, she just made a clever joke, if she’s been reading my posts for three years, she is well aware of my love affair for commas and run on sentences. It’s my style, and no matter how many people give me the book “Eats, shoots, and leaves,” and regardless of how many time I read it, this is as good as it gets.

Now I’m not starting the commuting argument again because I made my point about those who don’t have to drive and don’t assume everyone drives far to work. However, I have a friend that bought a home similar to mine in a nice NCC hood and paid more than twice as much than a temec home would go for at the time. He had to work extra hours to earn enough to afford it and so did his wife. I figured out that he could buy a similar place here, let his wife stay home, even if he drove, he’d leave the house and get home at the same time because he wouldn’t work extra and it would basically be a wash, except his wife could stay home, the daycare savings and the reduced house payment covered her net income. That was a few years ago, I hadn’t seen him in a while and recently we ran into each other and that is exactly what he did a while back. After about a year, so did a few of his buddies, who also had little kids and were killing themselves to make ends meet before.

That was their dream, to live a “leave it to beaver, dr. laura, my kids mom” kinda life. The world wouldn’t let him live it in carlsbad. He didn’t wait for the system, or the government, or the conspiracies or the tsuinami or the meltdown or the banks or anyone else. He just realized one day that he can’t have what he wants, where he wants and for what he wants. He just had to decide what his priorities were, choose the lesser of two evils in his eyes and made a decision instead of complaining about how it used to be or how he remembered it when he was a kid.

Because I read that alot on other threads, how 40 years ago a blue collar worker could live in carlsbad with a stay at home wife and life was good. It’s probably true, but it’s not true anymore and I don’t believe it will be true again. It’s also true that in the late 1800’s, what is now the entire town of vista was won in a poker game for $8 or that they used to give away land in the west on a first come first serve basis. Thrifty used to sell ice cream for a nickel a scoop and Jesus turned water into wine. These are all great stories, probably most of them are fairly accurate, but it is no longer true, it’s history. I’ll probably meet jesus and get him to show me how to do the wine trick before average families can live in carlsbad on one income, for right now, you can only pull it off in places like temecula and for right now, my water is water and my wine is wine, but I’ve found peace in those facts, can everyone else.

He didn’t wait for the system, or the government, or the conspiracies or the tsuinami or the meltdown or the banks or anyone else. He just realized one day that he can’t have what he wants, where he wants and for what he wants. He just had to decide what his priorities were, choose the lesser of two evils in his eyes and made a decision instead of complaining about how it used to be or how he remembered it when he was a kid.

Because I read that alot on other threads, how 40 years ago a blue collar worker could live in carlsbad with a stay at home wife and life was good. It’s probably true, but it’s not true anymore and I don’t believe it will be true again. It’s also true that in the late 1800’s, what is now the entire town of vista was won in a poker game for $8 or that they used to give away land in the west on a first come first serve basis. Thrifty used to sell ice cream for a nickel a scoop and Jesus turned water into wine. These are all great stories, probably most of them are fairly accurate, but it is no longer true, it’s history. I’ll probably meet jesus and get him to show me how to do the wine trick before average families can live in carlsbad on one income, for right now, you can only pull it off in places like temecula and for right now, my water is water and my wine is wine, but I’ve found peace in those facts, can everyone else.

OMG, an actual real estate thread. There’s math, facts, calculations, some heavy hitters and heavy arguments. This is like porn to me.

Remember when we did this all the time.

The only difference is some of the bears of yesteryear are writing what appears to be bullish comments, only their stance is the same. It’s as if guys like ocrenter and others have stood their mathematicial ground, but the marker for where the bear/bull line shifted.

For those of you who are new, I’ll give you an analogy. Let’s say this is a wet t-shirt contest instead of a real estate valuation argument and some of these posters are judges. In 2007 these posters argued that based on the size and shape, this gal should be a 7, but the other judges are giving her a 10, our piggington judges say it’s wrong and will be corrected. Now that it’s 2010, the same gal is still a 7 in their eyes, but there are people arguing that she should be a 4. They make the same argument, a natural 38c with slight iregularities, is a 7, history and the math support a 7, no more no less, but instead of being seen as mean judges, they are now accused of being the “paula abduls” of judges. Those judges never changed their math, they were right then, they are probably right now, their formulas didn’t change, the perception of their formulas have. When the likes of sdrealtor and ocrenter both give her a 7, guess what she’s probably a 7, and 7 aint bad. I like a 7, they are more appreciative than a 9 or a 10, but I digress, which is what I’m known for.

[quote=flu][quote=desmond]This is my all time favorite acquisition:

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/dicks-sporting-goods-to-buy-chicks-sporting-for-40-mln%5B/quote%5D
Lol… Chxxx with dixxx[/quote]

It’s not chicks with dicks, it’s dick’s buys chick’s. How did everyone not see that, dick’s have been buying chicks since they invented currency.

It’s still my favortie too desmond, I get a lot of miledge out of those jokes, my favorite is “of course it wasn’t a merger, once again dick had to pay chick, and assume chick’s debt.”
